SERPENT

Each of these Keith Haring watches snaps, crackles, and pops with the energy of 1980s New York. With irresistible designs and unexpected juxtapositions of colour--turquoise with avocado, apricot with bubblegum—they pulse to the rhythm of the streets. As exciting, original, and authentic as street-corner breakdancers, subway murals, and alley graffiti, these works attract attention like the best of street fashion. Haring’s iconic work captured the hearts of high and low art aficionados alike, and this famous series captures the essence of his style: Modele Avec Personnages (GZ100), Serpent (GZ102), Milles Pattes (GZ103) and Blanc sur Noir (GZ104).

Keith Haring

The work of American artist Keith Haring is some of the most instantly recognizable work of his era, featuring graphic, cartoon-like fi gures and poppy colours. Haring was involved in the streets-based art world that sprang up outside the gallery system in New York in the 1980s. His art fl ourished in the downtown streets and subways, where he claimed unused advertising panels and public spaces to create large-scale drawings and murals. Haring’s iconic work earned him international recognition, and continues to be featured in group and solo shows worldwide.
